Paid app vs Intro app


Recommended Posts

I've been looking through these threads and haven't found anything that satisfied me.

 

Basically I am a free member(nor premium) and I have the intro app (free) that I use time to time or I just go online and search the coords. Keep in mind I only use my phone which is a Galaxy s5.

 

I've noticed some controversy with the paid/free app. I don't want to become premium but I was thinking about buying the 10$ app.

 

Which is better? What are some pros/cons of each? With the paid app do I unlock more geocaches on the map?

 

I can adapt pretty easily so a little different layout won't mind me much. I did read that Groundspeak wasn't planning on updating the paid app? Or was that just rumours? Thanks for any help I get!

Whether all this is going to change or not regarding the free versus paid apps, I don't know.
